I put the CooL in pool!
Chlorine is far from borin'!

| Status update: |
|
1900's-In the past, thousands eggs of beautiful bald eggs began to break which decreased the population. This was because DDT(dichloro-diphenyltrichloroethane) was present. DDT is a very harmful chemical that conatins me, chlorine.
1914-I was used in weapons in World War I.
Fun Fact (10/23/12)-I'm also found in the oceans of the world!
Fun Fact (10/25/12)-Did you know that I'm heavier/denser than the air you breath?
Fun Fact (10/27/12)-My name, chlorine, came from the Greek word chloros, meaning green-yellow.

| Overview: |
|
I am a very dense greenish-yellow gas. I have a density of 3.21 g/ml. I have a boiling point of -34 degrees Celsius and a melting point of -10 degrees Celsius. I am also a very reactive gas and I react with most elements, except for the Noble Gases. Some say I am a little overREACTive... 3-5 sentences about the elements. (physical and chemical properties)
|
| Information: |
|
|
Relationship Status: I am dating sodium (sodium chloride) because that is where I am most commonly found and who I am most associated with, best friends with hydrogen (hydrogen chloride) and lithium (lithium chloride), and close buddies with many others! I'm so reactive that I make friends with practically everyone!

I appear as a greenish-yellow color. I am a dense gas with a sharp odor. I am so so reactive and acidic that I can dissolve some metals. I can also bleach certain materials such as when I turn red flower petals white. I am mainly used as a powerful bleach, in disinfectants, and in oxidation, but I am also used to produce safe drinking water, as sanitation, in textile processing, in manufacturing chlorates, and in organic chemistry. In addition to all of this, I am used in medicine, anticeptics, insecticides, plastic, paints, food preserves, and some solvents. 2-3 sentences about the elements. (physical and chemical properties)

- fun images - pictures that contain the element
- every photo must have a caption
- tag other elements in the pictures
    
Here I am with my partner sodium. Do you recognize my signature appearence? I am most commonly found here, I am found in I make paper and give it keeping your pools safe. Also, bleach, too! that beautiful white color! bromine helps disinfect pools.
    
Careful! I'm more danger- However, I can make This is how I really look! This is my daddy, Carl. I also get rid of pests. Tags:Bromine, Sodium
ous than I look, by myself. you feel all better!

What are some of your compounds? Who do you most easliy bond with and why?
Chlorine said
at 10:49 pm on Oct 26, 2012
I bond/combine readily and easily with almost all of the other elements because I am so reactive.
Chlorine said
at 11:16 pm on Oct 26, 2012
Some of my main compounds are sodium chloride, hydrogen chloride, and magnesium chloride.

Because of you and another element, we have a big problem on our hands. Explain yourself!
Chlorine said
at 9:28 pm on Nov 1, 2012
When combined with Nitrogen and Hydrogen together(Ammonia), several extremely dangerous reactions can occur that severely harm humans and the environment.
Large amounts of me in pools can be hazardous to the health of others, too.

Dude, let's go make some medicine. Saturday work for you?
Chlorine said
at 10:23 am on Oct 30, 2012
Yeah, can't wait, Calcium!!!!!
Copper said

You are highly reactive with soidum when you make salt.
Chlorine said
at 9:38 pm on Nov 1, 2012
Yeah! :)
Sodium said
at 10:34 pm on Oct 27, 2012
Hey! I most commonly react with you to form sodium chloride, or salt.
Chlorine said
at 9:39 pm on Nov 1, 2012
That's right! Where would the world be without us?
Lithium said
at 9:25 pm on Oct 28, 2012
Hey! What happens when you put me and you together, chlorine?
Chlorine said
at 9:16 pm on Nov 1, 2012
We make Lithium Chloride, which has several uses such as in metals for machinary and automobiles.
Mercury said
at 6:35 pm on Nov 3, 2012
What's new Chlorine?? It's me, Mercury! Remember that we make the compound mercurous chloride, something used in agricultural maggot control. I'm so proud of our baby!
Chlorine said
at 8:47 pm on Nov 4, 2012
Our compound is also used in photography, metals, preservatives, and medicine! :)
Iodine said
at 12:50 pm on Nov 4, 2012
wow, you're really reactive with a lot of things! High five to the Halogens!
Chlorine said
at 8:48 pm on Nov 4, 2012
Wahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aluminum said
at 7:02 pm on Nov 4, 2012
maybe we can hang out sometime and make some aluminum chloride- if your not too busy or anything...
Chlorine said
at 8:49 pm on Nov 4, 2012
Sounds great! Are you free this weekend?...
Hydrogen said
at 8:31 pm on Nov 4, 2012
You know what is cool? It's cool that we make hydrogen chloride together.
Chlorine said
at 8:50 pm on Nov 4, 2012
That is totally awesome! :)
Selenium said
at 9:14 pm on Nov 4, 2012
Hey isn't that interesting? You're very reactive, but you're on the right side of the periodic table!
Titanium said
at 6:51 pm on Nov 6, 2012
Isn't it cool how we have to be kept in an inert gas so that we don't burst into flames?
Gold said
at 12:14 am on Nov 7, 2012
Together we form gold chloride :)
Beryllium said
at 8:20 pm on Nov 7, 2012
I combine with you to form beryllium chloride.
